Great Garment Graphics is the place to go for educational webinars and presentations on all things heat printing. Each month they host presenters such as myself that prepare a powerpoint, Prezi or video to present a relevant topic to apparel decorators around the world. Yesterday, we published our first video on demand presentation, the topic: The Ultimate Heat Printing Start Up (for 4k or less).
If you’ve been thinking about starting your own apparel decorating business or expanding your existing decoration set, this is a good presentation to watch. It lasts approximately 45 minutes and is loaded with video content comparing heat press features, vinyl cutter features and examples of what you can expect to accomplish when you invest in heat printing.

Business owners like you or your boss are always looking for ways to make the sale or in some cases make more money on the sale. One of the most effective ways to make more money on a sale is to up sell the customer to a more profitable product.
With apparel decorating one of my favorite ways to do this is to take a customer design and elevate it.
Say this line out loud with a little sales swagger: ”If you want basic, I can give you basic. But if you want to stand out, just wait until you see looks we have for you!”
Special effect print techniques can take a $15 customized garment for a group and turn it into a $25+ garment with little additional cost.
But in order to profit from special effect finishes, make more money and earn more business, you have to know the options, create some samples and commit to sell them. Really, you have to “wake up”!
That “we’ve always done it this way” funk or that “all we do is names and numbers” funk is stunting growth….it really is.
I had a heartfelt conversation with a long time Stahls’ customer in the Sporting Goods Industry. He told me that he didn’t realize the type of interest that he would have in these “new” materials. He said, “I’m so glad you all kept on me to try this stuff”. He said, “sometimes you just have to wake us up and say listen!”. If you’re that shop owner, or your boss is that shop owner. This is the wake up call!
